This is self esteem issue, I do not know if it is surfacing now because of usage of SE
How do I takle this?
It does sound like it's coming up because you're listening to SE. It's kind of like the goal has been set (self esteem) then the things contrary to that is coming up telling you "no you can't have this". It's part of the process of dealing with it and sorting through it. Keep going.
Or get some paper and explore it in writing, ask yourself why you're feeling it and get as deep as you can. The awareness can help.
Until I started reading The Six Pillars of Self Esteem I wasn't fully aware how low self esteem impacts so much of your life. I'm still on chapter one & there are parts that had my jaw dropping thinking " WTF? That makes so much sense ". It's even started helping me understand why people such as my mother have constantly tried to sabotage me when I start something I know I will enjoy or possibly be good at
